HUSK
A short escape from the cities, from work, from social media to be alone with himself for a while, perhaps in search of inner serenity and contentment? Can he find self-acceptance? Or devoured by the endless void inside of his own husk.

Best Sound Design Award (No screening of full film for support categories, only a very short clip showed in the Nomination video.)
A colorist venturing into the directing path. HUSK is the 2nd short film from KwokYong. He directed some music videos, promo video for album and music festival as well.
In the end, no matter how many times we escaped, the repetitive cycles are going to catch up again, and we are going to be just as lost as we've ever been.. Cause deep down, we knew, the next morning when we wake up, it's still the same..
At some point, perhaps it doesn't really matter at all, it doesn't need to have a specific or grand meaning. But to embrace the helplessness, the emptiness, continue to float through like a tiny speck of dust, and washed away by the uncharted waves of time.
